The stylish white curved kitchen units are finished off with solid oak worktops and open plan to the dining area provides a fabulous living space for all the family.

At the top of the oak staircase is a beautiful glass balustrade balcony which has a superb view out through the six Velux style roof windows and overlooks the sun lounge area below. With direct open access down to the shoreline you can launch a canoe or kayak to explore the coastline. Alternatively, you could just sit on a rock and try your hand at a spot of fishing.

By far the best equipped holiday accommodation we have stayed in to date, superb location with panoramic views over Loch Striven towards Isle of Bute and Mountains of Arran beyond. A large comfortable house which was an excellent base for our house hunting activities. Outside an expansive lawned area with direct access to the beach and Lock so if paddle boarding or kayaking is your thing then this is ideal for you. About 20 minutes from Dunoon for supermarket shops, bars and the ferry to Gourock. All in all an outstanding property which I would recommend to family and friends.

We had a fantastic holiday at Sky View. The house was so clean and comfortable. Equipped to a high standard. The owners have thought of everything. The views from the house were amazing and we saw so much wildlife.
